Virtual reality (VR) technology has great potential in practical teaching, but its effect on marketing students has not been paid enough attention. This study aims to fill this gap by exploring the impact of immersive VR practical training courses on marketing learning. By using the self-developed “immersive VR supermarket design” system as a platform, this study qualitatively analyzed the evaluations of marketing students who participated in this VR practical training course. The results show that students have perceived novelty, perceived interest, the sense of achievement and perceived usefulness of the VR practical training course, which can enhance their professional identity and thus enhance their willingness to learn. In addition, perceived usefulness includes professional cognition improvement, professional knowledge deepening, practical ability improvement, VR knowledge improvement and team cooperation ability improvement. The conclusions show that it is a positive thing to introduce immersive VR into marketing practical training courses. This study enriches the research of immersive VR practical courses and provides significant implications for the development of VR practical training courses in marketing education.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142326988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a sample of 307 Pakistani university students, we employed the PLS-SEM approach to test the model. The results of the measurement model affirmed that the data meet the assumptions of convergent and divergent validities. The findings from the structural model showed that SNTs influence EI both directly and indirectly. Additionally, nAch is also found to positively moderate the link between SNTs and EP. Further, the results of conditional indirect effects infer that the indirect effect of SNTs becomes the most significant for the students who perceive a high level of nAch and the least significant for the students who perceive a low level of nAch.

These individual-level factors, which may originate from educational and business experiences, also support the development of international business competencies when firms engage in international operations. Accordingly, this study investigates educational collaborations in university-business linkages that influence international business competence at the individual level. Survey data were collected from 489 in-service-trained business executives pursuing (Executive) Master of Business Administration degrees while concurrently holding supervisory and managerial responsibilities in firms in Ghana. Factor analysis revealed four dimensions of educational collaborations in university-business linkages. Results from hypothesis testing, conducted using covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM), indicate that the diversity and internationality of study content and research dimensions positively and significantly influence these executives' global mindset, entrepreneurial orientation, and international marketing skills in performing foreign business operations. Similarly, interactions with international resource persons positively and significantly influence the executives' global mindset and international marketing skills. However, while participation in international affairs shows positive effects, these are not statistically significant. We discuss these findings and highlight their implications for developing international human capital through a university-business educational collaboration framework useful for executives, business schools, academics, and global higher education development partners.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1472811724001216/pdfft?md5=edca6fc8cb47e421b99b6d7fef3b407b&pid=1-s2.0-S1472811724001216-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142312857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings from semi-structured interviews reveal that participants believed peer learning to facilitate social, cognitive, behavioural, collaborative and social engagement. Posting and reviewing comments on discussion forums developed students’ communication skills and fostered a sense of community. Participants recommended that discussion forums should include a balance of applied and theoretical questions. Peer reviews allowed students to obtain feedback on their writing prior to their work being graded, and to develop the workplace skill of giving and receiving criticism. Participants believed that group work improved their teamwork skills and collaborating online prepared them for working in a post-COVID world. While some groups valued the social and emotional engagement facilitated by in-person group work, other groups found it more efficient to interact online.

Since a growing number of entrepreneurs are starting new ventures in several countries or cultures simultaneously, they deal with several cross-cultural issues. For this reason, cross-cultural competence becomes a critical driver of new venture performance. In this context, entrepreneurship education is considered an effective way to stimulate entrepreneurship-related skills and cross-cultural competence and to develop students’ entrepreneurial intentions. The European Commission has also underlined the role of entrepreneurial culture and competence as key factors for the creation of a new generation of public and private workers who are more creative, proactive, and innovative. The aim of this study is to theoretically discuss why and how cross-cultural competence could and should be integrated in entrepreneurship education programs, suggesting the Italian model of C-Labs as a viable set of contamination between university students at different levels and from different disciplines that promotes a new learning model based on interdisciplinarity. The study contributes to the advancement of the literature on cross-cultural competence and entrepreneurship education offering some practical insights for the development of entrepreneurship programs characterized by a cross-cultural approach.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142232177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
